Hi there, I'm a percussion performance major at Butler University, and the BU Percussion Ensemble will be going out to PASIC this November after our Midwest Tour. Anyways, I've never been to PASIC before and I've heard from many people that I probably won't be able to do/see all that I want. So, are there any recommendations on what I should do and see while I'm out there? Thanks!

Go to the PAS web site, and check out their list of clinicians/events:

http://www.pasic.org/schedule_events.cfm

...take five minutes to map out what/who you'd like to see. If there are two simultaneous events, both of which you'd like to attend, consider which of the two presenters you're more likely to see in the future. F.I., on that Thursday at 2:00, Mike Burritt has a performance and Bill Molenhof has a clinic. Personally, I'd go see Molenhof - no disrespect to Mike, but since Bill's based in Europe and Mike's in Chicago, I'm probably going to have more opportunities to see Mike in the future than I am Bill. For the most part, tho, the organizers have gotten pretty good at avoiding "similar topic" scheduling conflicts.

(...and if you haven't seen Trichy Sankaran, GO - what a phenomenal musician...)
